y "*In January last my frlend, Mr. W. E. Saunders, of London, Ontario, and myself, caught, tagged and liberated ulc i t ns s 4 ie ie ‘‘For the last twentyâ€"five jyears crows have ‘been wintering here in south western Ontario, with their number constantly increasing. Last winter from a rolling observation winâ€" dow I am sure I saw over one hundred thousand in less than an hour‘s run and my curiosity to know just where all these nest robbers are nesting, was so thoroughly aroused that I have made up my mind to find out. This week The Advance has receiv: ed : following letter from Jack Miner, the:noted bird lover and naâ€" turalist. _ Mr. Miner does not love ecrows, however, though perhaps he could not be accused of anything so mean as hate for ny living creature. Mr. Miner believes that the crows are a menace in many ways, but he is not content just to say. so; he has been studying their habits and ways. One thing hbe is anxious to learn is where they nest. Read the method ‘ he adopted to find this out, and the sue: cess he met with. Jack Miner writes : Miner Experimenting to Find Onc«mmthomnm Anâ€" y 3 s ult on t $ es tb o + w n M en Btr i: lt lt achs d 3 nteresting Incident. seX In dismissing the action, Judge Hewson stated that it was a pomt upon which few motorists were inâ€" formed. If a motorist is insured and figures in an accident, written declaraâ€" tion of the damage should be made to the company direct and as soonâ€" as possible. Verbal notice to the agent is not sufficient. G. M. Miller apâ€" peared for the plaintiff and Sims, Mcâ€" Intosh Co., of Kitchener, for the defendants. 7 At the hearmg Frlday, Gallipean claimed>$108 that he had paid to Mrs. Johnson, of Creighton, following the smash. : â€" Gallipeau struck and killed one of her cows and she sued in Diviâ€" sion Court, recovering damages to that amount. Galhpeau also claimed $185 from the insurance company for damâ€" age to his car. In the evidencee it was brought out that Gallipeau hadâ€"not notified the company of the accident but had merely informed the agent verbally ' ‘‘Now I Irave decided to tag fifty or one hundred each winter for educaâ€" tional purposes re tMeir migration, ‘and I want to ask all crow shooters to pick up dead crows fand examine their legs just above their feet for tags. words, I am asking your coâ€" ;.o;geration, but please don‘t ask me.to liberate overaone hundred a year for they are «altogther too murderously destructive on our desirable song, inâ€" sectiverous and game birds. Moreâ€" over, please don‘t burden me with enâ€" quiries about the net which, if put in practice, will control the crows, for I caught as high as five hundred and ten at one catch. . INvave the plans of same free of charge to the United Stated government, who, in turn, placed same in the hands of the Unitâ€" ed States Biolopical Survey, W ashingâ€" ton, .D.C., to distribute iblue prints and specification of same, free of clharge, to any person interested enough to build one. for same must be made direct to the Biological Survey, Washington, D.C."‘ If insured, after a motor accident notlfy the insurance company direct and not the agent through whom the insurance was obtained. ‘This was the substance of a judgment handed down by Judge Hewson last week at Sudâ€" bury, in dismissing a District Court action brought by Joe Gallipeau, of Sudbury, against the Merchants Casâ€" ualty Insurance Co., ‘of Wiaterloo, to recover damages done to his automoâ€" bile in a smash on the Creighton Mlne road last September 8th. _ Officéer Laviolette left this week for Windsor, Ont., to bring back to Timâ€" mins a man named Walter Nelson who is charged with nonâ€"support of his family. Nelson will have a hearâ€" ing on the charge next week. Early this year the authorities announced that the town was going to prosecute all men who left their families here without proper. support. During the past year there have been so many cases of hubands deserting their famiâ€" lies in town that the question ‘has beâ€" come a very serious one. The famiâ€" lies are left to ‘be a charge on the comâ€" munity, either directly as indigents or indirectly as a charge upon the chariâ€" ty of neighbours and friends. As a matter of justice and economy the town is making every effort to prevunt this sort of thing.: IN CASE OF ACCIDENT NOTIFY COMPANY DIRECT. BEING BROUGHT BACK HERE ~~â€" ON NONâ€"SUPPORT CHARGE premises near Kingsville, Ontario, which is twentyâ€"six miles south and southâ€"cast of% Detroit, Mich., and aâ€" ‘bout forty miles due nortb of Sandnâ€" -sk;y,, ‘Ohio, as the goose flies. Mr, ‘Saunders put the United States Bioloâ€" gical Survey tag on one leg, and I put my tag, ‘‘write Box 48, Kingsville, Ontario,‘‘ on the other. We, of course, put both of these tags on their hind legs and, believe me, it is every. thing buft a desirable job. The next day two of these same crowsâ€"were caught in the same net along with £wo hundred others, but nothing of importance occurred until last week when one of them was shot by Gilbert Sumerville, at Gatineau Point, Queâ€" bee, which is five or six hundred miles east and northâ€"east as the goose flies, from where it was tagged. The two tags are now in my posséssion. _ ways. _ Forty of these “Northern"l‘ype. €‘" engines have been manufactured in Can.admn.;?ants for yse of: main line Iastféu-enger ang mgx;{;«ztt;m service. .
